Match One, Learn with Graph: One-to-Graph Query Collaboration with Backward Sharing for Object Detection

The paper introduces BS‑O2G, a plug‑in that constructs a sparse prediction‑aware graph from decoded features, boxes, and class distributions to enable one‑to‑graph query collaboration in Detection Transformers. It uses One‑to‑Graph (O2G) calibration to propagate messages forward and Backward Sharing (BS) to route gradients backward, preserving the original one‑to‑one matcher and positive labels. Experiments on various DETR models, backbones, COCO, and CrowdHuman datasets demonstrate consistent performance gains, faster convergence, and minimal additional parameters or FLOPs.

MUGEN: Generating Unlearnable Graph Examples for Multiple Learning Tasks

MUGEN is a framework that generates unlearnable graph examples capable of protecting multiple downstream tasks—node classification, graph classification, and link prediction—simultaneously. It achieves this by perturbing a single clean dataset with a shared GNN encoder and task‑specific heads, guided by a Task‑Aligned Separability Objective (TASO) and a Type‑Adaptive Perturbation (TAP) that handles both discrete and continuous node attributes. Experiments on five benchmarks, four GNN backbones, and three learning paradigms show that MUGEN’s perturbations transfer across models and remain effective even under adversarial training and data augmentation.

SelfMOTR: Revisiting MOTR with Self-Generating Detection Priors

SelfMOTR proposes a detector‑free approach to multi‑object tracking that decouples proposal discovery from association by generating internal detection priors. The method builds on end‑to‑end transformer trackers, showing that joint detection‑association decoding retains hidden detection capacity and can be leveraged without external detectors. Experiments demonstrate competitive results, achieving 69.2 HOTA on DanceTrack and 71.1 HOTA on Bird Flock Tracking.

ROCS: Request-Oriented Compute Sharing for Efficient Large-Scale Recommendation

arXiv:2607. 27744v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern recommendation models gain prediction quality by scaling feature-interaction and sequence modules, but production cost constraints cap how far systems can scale.

Serving the Long Tail: Training-Free LLM Candidate Generation for Vacation Rental Marketplaces

arXiv:2607. 09877v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vacation rental marketplaces face a structural imbalance on the supply side: a small fraction of properties receive most user interactions, while the long tail of new, niche, and seasonal listings generates too little behavioral signal for collaborative filtering to serve effectively.

What Makes a Desired Graph for Relational Deep Learning?

arXiv:2606. 08491v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Relational deep learning (RDL) converts relational databases (RDBs) into heterogeneous graphs, but graphs derived directly from database schemas are often not well suited for how graph neural networks (GNNs) perform relational reasoning.
